Pilates
Pilates is a full-body workout which concentrates on strengthening deep skeletal muscles with a particular focus on core stability.
Pilates will improve your posture, strength, flexibility, balance and body awareness. Movement is controlled, centred, and precise, with flow and lateral breathing.

This low-impact form of exercise also encourages mindfulness as you move with precision and your breath.
Pilates will aid in the reduction or elimination of postural aches and pains, most significantly back pain. Fresh oxygenated blood is delivered to every part of your body as you move with awareness and control.
In Pilates, the chance of injury is much lower than with other forms of exercise. Top athletes use Pilates as a conditioning programme as it creates balance in the body and increases the mind-body connection. Creating balance in your muscles also helps to reduce future injuries and keeps you fit to enjoy other sports and activities for longer.
Low Impact

Guiding you through Mindful Movement & Mindfulness
Modern life causes many of us to suffer from niggling aches and pains and these are mainly due to poor posture, weak muscles or repetitive movement strains.
I encourage you to work at your own pace, listen to your body and not worry about the person next to you, we are all different.

Trigger Ball Massage, Stretch & Meditation workshops
In this 2.15hr workshop we will begin by taking a moment to ground ourselves and arrive in the present moment. The session will then unfold in three sections. Trigger ball massage. Full body stretch to relax and release tight muscles further. Restorative meditation to deeply relax body and mind.
Also known as self-myofascial release. Trigger point therapy and acupressure helps to release tight knots, also know as adhesions in the muscles. Increased blood flow gives relief to tension and pain creating better mobility in your joints.
The term myofascial refers to the muscles and fascia that surrounds them. The prefix myo- simply means muscle. Therefore, self-myofascial release is a massage technique of applying continued pressure to an area of myofascial tissue that contains restrictions, tightness, inflexibility, adhesions or lacks proper movement.
These layers of fascia can get tears in them when muscles are overused or experience injury.
If tears are left untreated, the layers of fascia can adhere together in spots (called adhesions) which cause pain and discomfort.
When we use self-myofascial release, pressure is put on these adhesions and then released. This allows us to get back to optimal physical performance. Adding the full body stretch session and meditation allows you time to rebalance body and mind. Relax, release, let go and breathe.
